You are accessing the page from an external system so the host will NOT be localhost as that is the local machine.

The address for the clients will be:

http://<server name here>/MEH/frmlogin.aspx

e.g. If the server is named web01:

http://web01/MEH/frmlogin.aspx

localhost is how you can make the system talk to its own local services. If you use 'localhost' on another system then it will talk to itself too. This is a defacto ISO standard called the loopback protocol and is why you have an extra network device named lo on your system.

Can you help with this problem?
